This patch contains a pass that transforms CBZ/CBNZ/TBZ/TBNZ instructions into a
conditional branch (Bcc), when the NZCV flags can be set for "free". This is
preferred on targets that have more flexibility when scheduling Bcc
instructions as compared to CBZ/CBNZ/TBZ/TBNZ (assuming all other variables are
equal). This can reduce register pressure and is also the default behavior for
GCC.
A few examples:
add w8, w0, w1 -> cmn w0, w1 ; CMN is an alias of ADDS.
cbz w8, .LBB_2 -> b.eq .LBB0_2 ; single def/use of w8 removed.
add w8, w0, w1 -> adds w8, w0, w1 ; w8 has multiple uses.
cbz w8, .LBB1_2 -> b.eq .LBB1_2
sub w8, w0, w1 -> subs w8, w0, w1 ; w8 has multiple uses.
tbz w8, #31, .LBB6_2 -> b.ge .LBB6_2
In looking at all current sub-target machine descriptions, this transformation
appears to be either positive or neutral.

This patch moves the class for scheduling adjacent instructions,
MacroFusion, to the target.
In AArch64, it also expands the fusion to all instructions pairs in a
scheduling block, beyond just among the predecessors of the branch at the
end.

addSchedBarrierDeps() is supposed to add use operands to the ExitSU
node. The current implementation adds uses for calls/barrier instruction
and the MBB live-outs in all other cases. The use
operands of conditional jump instructions were missed.
Also added code to macrofusion to set the latencies between nodes to
zero to avoid problems with the fusing nodes lingering around in the
pending list now.

AArch64InstrInfo::shouldScheduleAdjacent() determines whether two
instruction can benefit from macroop fusion on apple CPUs. The list
turned out to be incomplete:
- the "rr" variants of the instructions were missing
- even the "rs" variants can have shift value == 0 and behave like the
"rr" variants
This also splits the MacropFusion target feature into
ArithmeticBccFusion and ArithmeticCbzFusion.

Summary:
We have switched to using features for all heuristics, but
the tests for these are still using -mcpu, which means we
are not directly testing the features.
This converts at least some of the existing regression tests
to use the new features.
This still leaves the following features untested:
merge-narrow-ld
predictable-select-expensive
alternate-sextload-cvt-f32-pattern
disable-latency-sched-heuristic
